SUMMARY:November 2026 ConnectW Event  - Bend
DESCRIPTION:Moving Through Life’s Challenges with Grace\nImportant deadline to register:\nMidnight\, Sunday\, November 16\, 2026\nEvent date: Wednesday\, November 18\, 2026\, 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm PT\nVenue: RE/MAX Key Properties 42 NW Greenwood Ave.\, Bend OR \nLife can bring challenges we never expected and could never fully prepare for. How we move through those experiences can be shaped by resilience\, practical strategies\, and the support of others. \nJoin ConnectW for a meaningful conversation with a panel of women from our community who have faced terrible adversity–abrupt death in the family\, incarceration\, cancer\, discovering a sex trafficker in the family–and managed to hold onto joy\, optimism\, and love. They will share not only their personal experiences\, but also the strategies\, resources\, relationships\, and sources of support that helped them navigate difficult circumstances and move forward. \nThis program is ultimately about hope\, resilience\, and the importance of community. Attendees will leave with practical insights that may help them face their own challenges—or better support someone they care about when life takes an unexpected turn. \nOur panel: Esther Toso\, Krista Vela\, Amanda Quick\, and Laura Harro \n \nJoin us for an honest\, uplifting conversation about finding strength\, accepting support\, and moving forward with grace. \n
